Social Inequality in the Sick Leave Scheme
The purpose of the project is to generate knowledge and identify knowledge gaps regarding how a potentially modified sick leave scheme may have socially unequal impacts, meaning that some occupational or income groups may be affected more severely than others. The project is based on analyses of existing statistics and literature.
Engaging workplaces: A social partners perspective on youth activation
How can workplaces – encompassing employers, employees, and the organisational structures in which they are embedded – be reconfigured to facilitate the successful inclusion of vulnerable youth struggling to enter and retain a position in the labour market?
Youth with neurobiological diagnoses
The NEUROLIFE project maps experiences with and perspectives on living conditions, social participation, and public services among young people with neurodevelopmental diagnoses (ADHD, Autism and Tourette's Syndrome). A disproportionate number of young adults with these diagnoses meet physical, social, and financial challenges. There are clear limitations to how the public services are currently able to provide the support this group could need to have better lives.
Barometer of inequality
The aim of the project is to measure and analyze the development of economical and social inequality.
